Getting & Posting Datasets with the C# v2.0 SDK seems broken?

When I get a DataSet using the SDK I am getting back just the ID and the GroupID,  all of the important information like the tables, columns, rows etc.. are null

 

 

When I go to post a DataSet using the SDK I get a Bad Request:

 

"{\"error\":{\"code\":\"BadRequest\",\"message\":\"Bad Request\",\"details\":[{\"message\":\"

The property 'IsRefreshable' does not exist on type 'Microsoft.PowerBI.ServiceContracts.Api.Dataset'.

Make sure to only use property names that are defined by the type.\",\"target\":\"dataset\"}]}}"

 

It appears that while the SDK call demands I use the v2.0 Dataset, some validation is taking place on the other end that is expecting the v1 still. Any work arounds or plans to fix this?

 

Thanks.

I doubt the nulls are just as expected, because when I call the REST API Get Dataset directly, it doesn't return any table/column information.

To get the tables information, you can try below code. Note the dataset shall be created via REST API or a steaming dataset, expection will be raised if you try to get tables from a dataset which is published from Power BI desktop.

var tables =  client.Datasets.GetTablesInGroup(groupId, datasetId);

Even with above code, it doesn't return columns information, the REST API Get Tables documentation contains some issue as well, per my test.
